My teacher expects to be ready to teach the industrial revolution when school starts back up in January. I think it would be good for me to create a unit based on this time period, because I am not as knowledgeable as I should be about the era.
I think it would be really neat to teach a YA novel in my Social Studies classroom and I have a great one for North Carolina History, but the only issue is I do not know if my class will be ready to learn about civil rights before I finish my student teaching in Raleigh and move on to Russia. The book is "Blood Done Sign my Name." I plan to discuss the possibility further with my CT and see what she thinks.
I am also considering some sort of unit on North Carolina folklore and legends. I know that students would love to learn about ghost stories and super natural phenomena, but I would need to make the unit tie in to something that is in the Common Core.
